Mechanism of Psychological Cause of Infertility

In fertility can
be caused by many reasons such as psychological factors, liver and thyroid
factors, problems making sperm and so on. But today, I only want to introduce psychological
Factor for your guys.

A woman is a
bundle of emotions, mood and mind. They turn switches off or on at the cellular
level. Their delicate balance can switch off fertility. The imbalance of
hormones themselves can create emotional upheavals and mood swings which in
turn affect fertility or infertility.

The brain or
intellect does it through hormones or chemical messengers. Hormones are
secreted by endocrine glands. The mind, mood and hormones work through a
cascade of checks and balances called the feed-back mechanisms.

Your psyche is
made up of your mind (center), your will and emotion. The mind is the man and
where the mind goes, the man follows.In the male, FSH stimulates the testicles
to produce testosterone which stimulates the testes to produce and mature
spermatozoa within 90 days.

The hypothalamus
secrets a hormone called the gonadotropin releasing hormone which in turn
stimulates the pituitary gland at the base of the brain to secrete follicle
stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). FSH and LH are called
gonadotropins because the stimulate the gonads (ovary and testis) to produce
estrogen, progesterone and testosterone. Endocrine or ductless glands as the
name implies don’t have secretory ducts; as such they secrete their contents
directly into the blood stream. I will elaborate on this in a minute. The brain
controls everything including signalling the body to produce or reproduce.

This is where the
hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis kick in. LH surge signals the release of
mature eggs. While progesterone preserves and sustains pregnancy if
fertilization occurs in the female. Estrogen helps in the maturation of the
eggs in the ovaries. We now know about the connection called the
psychoneuroendocrinology. This is a fancy way of saying that our psychology
controls our brain wiring which in turn controls our hormones released through
our circulation. The hormones tell our body what to do including process that
triggers reproduction. LH helps to release mature sperms from the testicles. The
hypothalamus is the midbrain containing the emotional brain called the limbic
system. Know that sex hormones in particular and hormones in general are
chemical messengers that signal the body to do something.

This type of
infertility is curable. As long as you adjust your mind and taking pill, your
reproductive ability will come back again. More information about the causes of
